That's actually consistent somewhat with job queue. Someone edits a big
template and big batch of jobs happen all at once.

But did they use a template that got edited recently, or did the langlinks at
wikidata get edited recently?

I don't have access to anything you don't have (im just a volunteer). And I
should note my guess is just a guess so theres quite a possibility it is wrong.

A list of example pages wouldn't be that useful (to me anyhow). The
parseroutput of the pages after going through a refreshlinks job might be
mikdly interesting, but there's not an easy way to get that.
